president obama did one last rally. a huge one. 25,000 people in the rain at the university of north carolina in charlotte. he talked about his grandmother that night. he said, she's gone home. she died peacefully in her sleep with my sister at her side. he said, i'm not going to talk about her too long, because it is hard for me to talk about. so with hours to go until election day, presidential candidate barack obama, that night before the election in 2008, he stood in the rain in charlotte and he cried during his speech. and he gave liz closing argument for why he should be president of the united states. and it was a very powerful moment because of that raw, human emotion, but it was also a powerful political moment because here it was the night before a presidential election and it is a big deal that the democratic presidential candidate is making his closing argument to the nation from the south. and he could afford to do that because some of the south was within reach for him, and for democrats on election day. >

there was a hue and cry this would be a valentine to president obama, the catherine bigelow movie. there was a delay in the release, and when it came out president obama was like a ten or 20-second figment in a steve croft interview and that's it. in other words, i think the concerns had an impact. might they have an impact on the way that hillary clinton is treated, by cnn and nbc? >> they might. one thing about cnn, that's being directed by charles ferguson, who did "inside job" who is kind of hostile to the kind of corporate democrat position that hillary clinton represents. there's no evidence that either of these projects is biased in her favor, but reince priebus, i just want to say as a woman, i thought the way they treated mika this morning, i would never let you personally moderate a debate, coming on to a show where she's a co-host and putting her down like that and challenging her objectivity. i think it's kind of mean and has the potential to backfire, especially when he makes it personal like that. there was something off about it. >> i appreciate you both being here.
